We could not be more excited to announce that we will be launching Urban Racoons Creative Hub (URCH) to support creative endeavors across the board. Consequently, we will be hosting three URCH Writers’ Club virtual events in 2026. Not only will we be able to offer each other support and tips, we will also have guest speakers at two of our events, the amazing and talented Tash Durkins and Sheena Yap Chan.

Mark your calendars now for these sure to be enlightening events:

• February 25th, guest speaker: Tash Durkins

• June 24th, guest speaker: Sheena Yap Chan

• September 30th, collaboration with other like-minded creatives

• All events will be over Zoom at 4 PM Eastern Time

We are also planning for other virtual and in-person events throughout the year. Stay tuned for more details.
